For a unique view of the city, try seeing it from the Columbia River and staying on Portland's only "yacht & breakfast." This beautiful 34-foot yacht has two well-equipped staterooms, a microwave, cable TV, a bathroom with shower, and even Wi-Fi access. Once on board, you'll be greeted by a fresh fruit and cheese platter and nice selection of Oregon wine; you can also have a catered dinner brought on board to enjoy while cruising down the river. Pros: Unique travel experience, fresh-brewed coffee and pastries in the morning. Cons: Kids aren't allowed, smaller than usual quarters compared with standard hotel rooms.
